    Wow...

    I'm a horrible person...my first thoughts after reading that was how the hell does she fit into any burlesque outfits and who the heck would want to see that.

    That, and helps Trump IMO.

    I've been in SE Asia for a week now (cool story bro! Hey spooge!) and you just don't see sickly bodies like that here. Americans are so fucking delusional if they think the status quo is going to be maintained with athe attitudes they have toward fitness and health.

    It's the same if you look at photos of Americans from the 1950s. None are overweight and they look healthier, by and large, than we are today.

    Philosophy Major dancing Burlesque? The delusion is complete. Colleges educate less and less, while brainwashing and deceiving more and more. I'm sorry, Ms. Millennial, but nobody wants to see you in burlesque, hire you, or fuck you. And it's not just because you're overweight and unattractive - that doesn't prevent you from getting laid. It's the wide gap between your view of reality and actual reality that sends any employer, date or potential fuck-buddy out the door as fast as possible. Burlesque. Goddamn.

    No, you're not a horrible person. Honesty is STILL the best policy. We just don't practice it enough, because our society has become so mentally weak.

    "She looks like a 1940s starlet..."


    DISAGREE

    Those women looked hot in the black and whites.
  • Victim mentality will ensure she is a loser for the rest of her life. Hopefully which is short.

    I cry no tears for fuckheads who put themselves in this position. Da fuq kind of job is available for philsophy/history of science majors?!? I'm 99.9% certain she went to Europe and 'traveled' after graduation, too.

    Ms. Spicer, who studied philosophy and the history of science at St. John’s College in Annapolis, Md., has had jobs as a barista, a taxi dispatcher and a deli worker. She has $72,000 of student debt and has never been paid an annual wage, she said, of more than $17,000.

    53 seconds...

    It doesn't even say she graduated. 90% of the time, when someone says they "studied" in this, it means they didn't finish.

    Even if she did graduate, if she compiled $70k in debt and all she has to show for it is a degree in philosophy or history of science, then she deserves all the financial hardships that come her way.

    I do love how she blames the government. The government didn't make her pick a major that has absolutely zero value when she gets out.
    She blames the government because she wants the "government" to pay for her debt. Typical Millennial, devoid of all personal responsibility.

    Poor Joe Smith was tricked into 100,000 dollars of student loan debt to get his degree in History of Non White Male Artists.
    This.
    Then the poor old sod was duped into a mortgage for a house he can't afford which he furnished using the free credit cards that showed up in his mailbox.
    This
    Now he is hopelessly buried under massive debt while working for the new 15$ an hour minimum wager servicing the BurgerBots at McDonalds who do the work Americans don't want to do.
    and fucking THIS
    Intends to vote for Hillary so she will pick up the tab and give him the same fair shot that rich white and old Americans get.

    The article is one of the many reasons why I'm voting for Gary Johnson.

    She should blame the government for guaranteed subsidization of her student loans.

    Or for not "creating enough jobs". LOL.

    Also....tl, dr and @Tequilla didn't even read it.

    I actually read it but shouldn't have ... total waste of time ... could have narrated the article pretty quickly with just a few bullet points of fact to go off of

    A friend of mine who runs his own successful business was sued by their millennial Social Media intern. I'm not exactly sure why and she lost badly but during the lawsuit, he and his lawyer found out that she was borrowing lots of money from the Federal Government to go to school. Sadly she would enroll for a few days, drop out, and then use the loans to help fund her fun-loving lifestyle.

    She did this at least for at least 3 semesters and has no intention of ever paying the money back to the Federales so the taxpayer (you and me) will have to cover it. Below is how reckless the Obama government has been in shoveling money to POSs like the girl above:

    The point of going to college is to pay for a piece of paper that says you studied something so that you can get a job. If you just want an education, there's no point in wasting money on college, because you can still get just as good of an education as long as you have internet access.
  • Same assholes who voluntarily take a gig with uber, knowing exactly what it is, then sue uber because uber did what they said they'd do and what the asshole agreed to. What in the fuck? We need death panels

    The future does look scary for Millennials. Not because Millennials are going to face more problems than previous generations, but because Millennials are pussies who are fucking scared of everything.

    Hate speech!

    Take it from me, you can avoid student debt AND get a good job, even as a history major.

    These cunts made poor choices and should live with them.

    If your aspiration is to be a burlesque dancer, what is the point of a degree you can't afford?

    Maybe the push to get everyone into college is failing.

    We're always hiring at Orkin.
    Millenials are afraid of spiders.

    Someone needs to call Webster, because I think we found a new definition to the word irony.
